Community Tasting Note

    September 7, 2013 - I was bowled over by the 'Watson Ranch' and had high expectations here which, alas, went largely unfulfilled. Very pale in the glass. Aromas were reticent and brought to mind broth and grandma's face powder. No tropical notes, be they pineapple or coconut. So far, so good. For me the flavor was just too simple: one-note lemon--nothing of any depth, nuance, or complexity. Ample acidity, not blowsy, so in no way flawed, but kind of anticlimactic. Not a wine I would be inclined to buy more of except that I already did. Time and air did not improve things. Actually, the more I drank it the more negative my opinion became. Yeah, it wasn't monkeyed with, but I don't find much there there.
